Agency Test Shoot (June 14th 08)

This is perhaps the most people I've worked with on a shoot to date, to some people it may sound like a small creative team but I've only just started working with other creatives, I used to do everything alone not realising you'd have the benefit of very talented people with more experience than me working instead of trying to do everything yourself.
Anyway.. this was quite fun. I am now (well nearly, still need to get my portfolio sorted) represented by a Milan agency - Sudest57 (very excited but it's still in the process :])
Basically, this shoot was so the art director from the agency could observe me and see how I work and meet me and chat about things.. it went quite well and we managed to fit in two different sets of pictures.

Models are Danielle & Nhuc Tran.
Hair & make-up by Leah Mabe & Tamsin Witts-Thomas
Skirts (first part) from Allie (thanks!) :)
Other clothes (first part) are models own
Accessories (shoes, belts etc) from second half are mine & styled by me

We didn't get a lot of time to focus on taking behind the scenes, as everyone was so focused on getting the photoshoot right and observing how everything was going.. but meet the team!
